Thu, 05 Jun 2014 12:23:42 +0000http://blog.us.playstation.com/?p=133429#comment-988727I am so excited for this game! Since the first trailer, this has been my most anticipated game for 2014. Can’t wait to get lost in your world.

Anything that I can buy at retail, I buy at retail. But I don’t shun digital-only releases, because like Pan said, I’d be missing out on a ton of great games. And the reason he doubts this will get a physical release is the same reason I doubt it will. Let’s just look at the huge list of digital titles that have gotten (or will get) physical releases.
Back to the Future (Telltale)
Walking Dead Season 1 (Telltale)
Walking Dead Season 2 (Telltale)
thatgamecompany Collection
Minecraft
Best of PSN, Vol. 1 w/ “When Vikings Attack”, “Sound Shapes”, “Tokyo Jungle” and “Fat Princess”

That’s not really too great a list to be requiring retail releases of digital-only indie games or refusing to buy them. By all means, reserve your HDD space for digital-only games and buy AAA stuff at retail. That’s exactly what I do and will continue to do for years to come. But seriously, the only thing ignoring digital releases is going to do is keep you from playing some truly amazing and innovative games.

If I bought every digital game that came along, my hard drive would be full in a month.

Thu, 05 Jun 2014 02:41:49 +0000http://blog.us.playstation.com/?p=133429#comment-988686I hope we get to see more dev diaries while waiting for the launch date. It’s really interesting learning about the process, philosophies and inspirations behind Hohokum since it is such a different game. Like I said in my first comment, I really can’t tell what’s happening in Hohokum from the trailers, but I love that about it. Sometimes you just know when a game is going to be special. Sometimes you can judge a book by it’s cover.

@Einhander138, if that’s true – and I doubt it is – you’ll be missing out. Indie games generally never see a retail release. I love expanding my blu-ray collection too, but that’s just not how this works. My guess is Hohokum will be priced between $9.99 and $14.99. If it were to have a retail release, it would have to cost a lost more to make up for all of the additional costs. Keep your expectations realistic. You have a hard drive in your console. This is what it’s for.

Wed, 04 Jun 2014 22:47:01 +0000http://blog.us.playstation.com/?p=133429#comment-988658Another big boost recently (and I know Phil Fish said this about Fez too) has been all the amazing music and audio design going into the game, which makes a massive difference to how the game feels..

And (at least for me) it isn’t hard to let go. We’re all super happy with how Hohokum has turned out – if we had our time over, no doubt there’d be a couple of things we’d do differently, but actually not all that many. One nice thing about being a small team working on such a wide game is that there are enough places to keep things fresh. You’ll go back to a place to fix a bunch of bugs or add some new animations, and have been away long enough to enjoy it all over again..
